Vauxhall Vivaro - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 2 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Instrument cluster
Operation: How to reset the service light on an Opel Vivaro

Let's see the system for resetting the Service spy in the Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro: first we have to get on the vehicle and close all the doors; we also apply the handbrake. We then turn on the instrument panel, without starting the engine; we press - and keep pressed fully - the accelerator pedal. Simultaneously with this, we will have to press the brake pedal three times, always fully. This way the service request message should be cleared. We must now turn off the ignition and then turn it on again, this to verify that the warning light has actually gone out.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
